As weird as it sounds, the first time Detroit lost to Utah, it was because the ball had too much air in it.

[mavsfan1000]

Pistons>Spurs this year.
Spurs>Pistons last year.

[BillupsMVP]

Too much air in the ball caused long rebounds on all the shots. The coverage at the start of the game showed harpering and billups checking the ball and it was bouncing over chaunceys head when droped form his hand

FEAR THE FRO :fro

It all goes back to the Finals. Then everyone shuts up.

Dont live in the past that was last year

[mavsfan1000]

It makes some sense to say the spurs are better than the mavs but you are totally homeristic if you say the spurs are better than the pistons.

[Trainwreck2100]

Did somebody link this website on a Piston's board

[Brutalis]

Dont live in the past that was last month and weeks ago.

Anything else? Pistons fans know they got no room to talk til they beat us in the finals seeing that we both make it there. End of story... it's about the jewlry..

[Brutalis]

Did somebody link this website on a Piston's board
Pistons.com forum several weeks ago.

[malkool52]

Did you watch the game? I watched the entire thing. The ball had too much air in it. FSD announcer's McLeod/Kelser even bounced it around at half-time and it was over pumped. Excuse? No.

"it's all about the jewrly"

First off, it's spelled jewerly. Secondly, saying that, in the context you are, is living in the past.

[TDMVPDPOY]

Its not the spurs fault, its the jazz fault for cheatin so many years overpumpin the ball, thats probaly the reason why they beated us in 98 wcf, made the ball heavy to offset malones muscles....

[orhe]

i have to agree w/ the pistons fans on these one :D
utah balls normally have too much air on it

A lot of teams have been complaining about too much air in the basketballs in Utah. It's a weird thing if it's actually true.

[malkool52]

Just curious, is there an official PSI that NBA basketballs are supposed to be at?

Yes there is http://www.nba.com/analysis/rules_1.html?nav=ArticleList

it is between 7 and 1/2 and 8 and 1/2

[malkool52]

Of course my next question is: does anyone have access to the gameball at the Delta Center :P?

[mikejones99]

Pistons fans should just move to San Antonio if they like to be where the best basketball is all the time or stop coming here. I know michigan is hell but jesus.

You broke so many fallacies of logic, that I don't even know how to reply to this..

[mikejones99]

Pistons fans come here say the same stuff all the time and it should be in the NBA catagories not the Spurs section. THey never ganna realize the Spurs have a great team and Pistons are not unbeatable till the finals so it is just wastin time. It is known worldwide that Michigan is a dump, so you all should move. Pistons are good but Shaq and the heat might beat them before the finals.

Stop trying to regulate the forum and go back to the political forum with your nonsense.

:tu :tu

[malkool52]

Why is Michigan a worldwide known dump? I said NOTHING about the Pistons being unbeatable. I think that we will have problems with Miami, because in our WIN vs. them earlier they proved they CAN beat us. I never said anything about beating the Spurs as well. Why would I be wasting time if I said DET can beat SAS, or if you said SAS can beat DET? It's sports talk. There is no answer until it happens, that is the fun in it. By the way, the topic was "spurs>pistons", by a Spurs fan, therefore it involves the Pistons.

[mikejones99]

about 20% of these forums has some kinda Pistons in it. most should be at least in the NBA news. Proof. lol. Do you ever read?

[malkool52]

Why is Michigan a worldwide known dump? - Answer that.
20% of "this" forum has some kind of Pistons in it? I need more stats... how many are there total, how many are by Spurs fans? Or in a topic that would suit. You have no proof. I do read. I don't guestimate and use my guestimations as fact. That would make me a douchebag.

[mikejones99]

Kori maybe has the facts for this place. I know what see. You should check out some film of the Spurs last 4 games and the murder statistics for states.

[BillupsMVP]

Ok so you have beat the bobcats, hornets, T-wolves and jazz none of which are impressive wins and before this BIG 4 game tear you lost to the nuggets seems like the spurs are playing great

[malkool52]

Source: http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/article.php?scid=12&did=169#MRalpha

Murder Rate per 100K (from 1995-2004)
Texas: 6.7
Michigan: 7.07

WOW WE ARE A SLUM.

Washington DC had 262 killings last year, a rate of 45.82 per 100,000 residents. Detroit came in second, with 402 killings, or 42.04 per capita.

That's why its high, not because of Michigan as a whole.

Do you read?

[Kori Ellis]

City smack is so weak.

Save it for another forum.

[ChumpDumper]

Dang, do you guys realize how much the Pistons are in your heads?

They're doing great. We are doing ok. That's pretty much it right now. Let's just hope for some good health to keep developing our rotation.

Quit getting ahead of yourselves.

[malkool52]

Just to elaborate, Michigan has a population of 9,938,444.
9,938,444/100,000=99.38444
That means 7.07*99.38444= total michigan muders=702.64 (Using the 95-04 rate, not the lower 6.4 of 2004, meaning Detroit counts for more)
702.64-402=300.64 muders in michigan, not in detroit.
Detroit population = 951,270, only accounting for 9.57% of Michigan's population but, 57.2% of the total Michigan murders.

[mikejones99]

Spurs are about to catch fire and the Pistons. u have been warned.

[carina_gino20]

Too bad the law of transitivity doesn't always hold true in basketball. The Pistons are still the best now but the Spurs have enough time to catch up (not necessarily in rankings).

[ace3g]

right now the pistons are better than the spurs, but lets make our judgements after the all star break; which is why I wished the spurs would have only played the pistons once before the all star break

It should be like that for all season series between west/east since they only play against each other twice

[SAtown]

Its not the spurs fault, its the jazz fault for cheatin so many years overpumpin the ball, thats probaly the reason why they beated us in 98 wcf, made the ball heavy to offset malones muscles....

Sorry, but we didn't play the Jazz in the '98 WCF. We weren't even in the WCF that year. They played us in Western Conference Semi Finals.

DETROIT NBA CHAMPS 2006

Don't be too optimistic. Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili have been hobbled by injuries through midseason yet we are still up there in the standings. I wonder if the Pistons can do the same or perform as well as they are playing right now if one of the Wallaces' goes down or maybe one of your starting guards Rip or Chauncey. The Spurs have proven it last year and this year. The Pistons however, don't seem to fair well recordwise when hit by the injury bug (or major suspensions!).

Most of the Pistons fans found out about this board during the playoffs last year .. and a lot of them have stuck around ever since. The reason you are seeing new Pistons fans here in the last couple weeks is because someone posted our link on their boards. Their boards aren't good, so I don't blame them for coming here.

I know that you and Obstructed View don't like talking so much about the Pistons. But like I've said repeatedly, it's the Spurs fans starting so many threads about the Pistons .. Pistons fans are just participating in the conversation.

I know some Spurs fans don't like talking to fans of other teams. I do .. it's better than circle jerking about the Spurs (or bitching about them 24/7).

If I don't like a subject, I just scroll.

it's not about that at all. they can post all they want. but, i came here for spurs discussion. and i can get that at spurs report even though they're assholes. they pretty much jackhammer the piston trolls where as here it's a welcome blanket.

my point? i want spurs talk, like the .com says. not pistons talk. and if i have to go somewhere else over this place being owned by pistons fans and spurs fans making 094809324803284 pistons topics in the spurs section then i can leave, it's not problem because i won't be missed as i don't have any friends here and it's not a problem at all and i won't create one. i just figure if the .com says spurs talk that's what the talk is about. it's fine.

On the first two pages of the forum, there's only one thread made by a Pistons fan. The rest of the threads about the Pistons are made by Spurs fans. The Pistons are the Spurs biggest rival right now. So Spurs fans want to talk about the Pistons-Spurs matchup. When the Lakers were the biggest rival, the majority of Spurs boards were about the Lakers-Spurs matchup. That's just how it is.

If you want to talk about other things about the Spurs, then you can just make more topics about those subjects.

I just don't understand why you can't just skip the two or three topics about the Pistons and go to another thread. It's like it burns you or something.

I would be scared if we traded Rasho unless we got a better big back. I don't want to just trade him to trade him.

I think Tony is incredibly determined this season and will be consistent.

I think Duncan has only got one injection. His last treatment was some kind of shock therapy I think.

it's not exactly shock therapy, boutons explained it. it's the same sort of sound waves they use to break up kidney stones. i hear it's not quite the brown noise that police use.
